Every time I publish a project, it sends an email notification to task owners saying their task has changed, but it actually has not

Question

The email notification setting is checked by default to notify a task owner if a task has been assigned or modified. However, every time I publish the project it will send an email notification to all users who have tasks assigned to them stating
that something has changed. It will send this email no matter if something has really changed or not. It's a problem because I might publish several times a day, but the task owners think that something has really been adjusted/modified with their
task. The email is confusing and unnecessary. How can I resolve this?

the easiest way is to tell your team members to change their notifications in personal settings - Manage My Alerts and Reminders. Ask them to disable "My project tasks are modified" and configure e.g. "Send me a reminder 2 Day(s) .... before my
tasks start"

Thanks Barbara. My only issue is that the task(s) in question are not modified. However, when you publish, it sends the notification stating something has changed to those tasks assigned to a user when they really haven't. Is this really by
design? It is very confusing to someone receiving it because they think something has truly changed.
